Example II Alumina pellets prepared and calcined as described in Example I were'impregnated by immersion for ten minutes in an aqueous solution Of ammonium molybdate. The pellets were drained to remove excess of the ammonium molybdate solution, and then dried to 10-15% volatile matter afterwhich the dried pellets were calcined at 550 C. for two hours. The catalyst so prepared consisted of 4% by weight of molybdenum oxide, M003, on alumina.
A sample of 54 grams (60 cc.) of the pelleted molybdenum oxide-alumina catalyst was placed in a steel tube of 14 mm. inside diameter through which 810 grams of acetone was passed during a period of twenty hours at an average liquid space velocity of 0.86. During this time the catalysttemperature was 350 C. and the operating pressure was 70 atmospheres. The product recovered consisted of 11 grams of non-condensible ga 24 grams of condensible gas, and 775 grams of liquid product.
